Looking for Day Care Not to Expansive in University Area

Hello everybody.

I and my family are newcomers in Charlotte from France since one month. We have a 4 years old son and a 21 months old daughter.
I am staying at home but I go on the job I had in France. So, I need to find a day care solution overall for my son from now until next september in the university area. He stopped school in France (= free public preschool) last december and I want he meets other kids. He speaks french and arabic but not english yet. It will be a good thing if I can let my daughter from time to time too evec if I can keep her at home. I have a look in the preschool in Charlotte but it is so expansive...Does it exist other solution? Please help me.

my child goes to a public school during the day, and a afterschool daycare program... so as for all day programs, I understand from other moms that this one is reasonable as compared to the ones in Charlotte. Harrisburg is a very short distance to drive from the University area. http://www.ruckushouse.com/v2/locations/nc-harrisburg/hom...

Hi, You could try a church preschool they are much cheaper. But they are most likey all full for this Spetember. If you are looking for in home care I would be interested. I have two kids who are 3 and 5(boys) and I live in Huntersville. Let me know if you would like to discuss his further.

Hi S.,
Welcome and I hope your life is blessed greatly in this country! I wanted to ask if you had a church home yet, usually they offer a pre-school or some sort of child care for children. If you have access to the internet, do a search for a church that offers childcare services that is aligned with your personal religous beliefs!
Good luck in your search and God Bless you and your family!

Hi,
I am a local student looking for part time nanny work. I am college educated and have current certifications in infant/child/adult CPR and first aid, AED (defibulator used for cardiac arrest), and oxygen delivery (these are basic medical safety courses). I am nanny agency screened (they pay a professional company to do a background check) and I used to work for the government. So I have had two background checks and references available. I am available Monday and Saturday--all day, and Tuesday-Friday after 12:30 in the afternoon. My rate is $12/hour Please contact me if these times work for you, and if not please know that I am also available for occasional babysitting at night as well. Thank you for your time and welcome to Charlotte.
